winigwl Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 here are my top 5 5. chinese sleep chant (one of the best on the new album, not getting enough credit, and one review even called it the album's weak point!) 4. parachutes (i know its only 40something seconds but i think its absolutely beautiful) 3. square one (kick ass opener, arguably the best on x&y) 2. life is for living (awesome end to an awesome album, loved it on live 2003) 1. daylight (amazing on album. even more amazing live) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisin Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 1. Parachutes/Sparks: The first one does not get credit as being arguably the most beautiful thing Coldplay have done and the second one does not get credit as being arguably the second most beautiful thing Coldplay have done imo... 2. Daylight/Green Eyes: The most amazing song live and one of the sweetest songs i've ever heard (though Gwyneth doesn't agree from what i hear...) 3. Low: I think it's the most underrated and the best track on X&Y, a great rocker. 4. Reign of Love: A sweet piece to gather some air amidst all the kick-assness of the album.

chuck kottke Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Daylight is just Clocks after taking a few magic mushrooms!:P High Speed is uno numero when I think about underrated Coldplay songs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gloaming09 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 -X&Y (song): I don't hear much praise of this song, yet it is probably my favorite coldplay song -Murder: Although a b-side, i don't hear many people talk to highly of the song like with Bigger Stronger/Gravity -Daylight -Spies -No More Keeping My Feet On The Ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertuzzi44 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hah. I reckon if everyone believes a song is underrated it's not in fact underrated, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecoldplay Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Every song never released as a single...with the exception of The Hardest Part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayingCold Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 1. No More Keeping My Feet On The Ground 2. We Never Change - The albums best point in my opinion. 3. Everthings Not Lost 4. For You - Beautiful, one of coldplays best songs! I love chris' voice in this, it goes so well with the piano. All of my choices are from the Parachutes era, but I think Parachutes is unappreciated, especially by the band themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicophi235 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Parachutes: I love this little track. I really wish it were longer, but it's 40 seconds of beauty. Life is for Living: Same thing. Too short, but really a great track. Square One: This song is just great. Intricate melody, almost spooky. A Whisper: Okay, I hated this song and never, ever listened to it all the way through until recently. Turns out, it's pretty cool. LOL Proof: I've always loved this song, and didn't realize it was so despised among the Coldplay community. I still think it's beautiful. Spies: Gets lost in all the good tracks on Parachutes, but it's a really good song. White Shadows: This song has a lot of attitude... I've always liked it more than "Talk" or "Low," the two comporable songs on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauiwi Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 - Crests of waves - A magnificent B-Side that complimented the 'Clocks' single - One I love - Again, B-Side from the 'In My Place' Single - The World Turned Upside Down - A B-Side from the 'Fix You' Single - Violet Hill - It's Copping an ABSOLUTE beating on the front page Poll. (just because its not as new???) - White Shadows (Off X&Y) - love the intro and chorus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icarus Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Fix You gets a lot of bashing on this forum, probably because it was once overrated by many, but I really enjoy it, and I think it's one of my favourite Coldplay songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
